Abstract

Embodiments disclose an antenna information sending method and device, and an antenna information receiving method and device. The method includes: obtaining first antenna information of a terminal device, where the first antenna information includes at least one or more of a maximum number of layers for uplink spatial multiplexing that are supported by the terminal device, an antenna number supported by the terminal device, or whether the terminal device supports smart switch on/off of UE's antenna ports. The method also includes sending the first antenna information to a base station. In this way, the terminal device can control, according to a service requirement of the terminal device, an antenna deployed on the terminal device, and report antenna information of the terminal device to the base station in a timely manner.
